Stock Trading With Volume Profile #3 (TESLA)

In today’s post, I am going to talk about Tesla (TSLA) stock. This stock and revolutionary company is now very popular. It’s price skyrocketed (pun intended) in 2020 from $80 to $500. Isn’t that crazy for a regular stock?

Crazy or not, here is the Tesla on a Daily chart:

TESLA: Support around 300.00

There is a pretty interesting zone in the chart. It is a heavy volume area which got formed in July around 300.00.

I think that those heavy volumes that you can see on the Flexible Volume Profile were volumes of strong buyers. Those buyers were adding to their longs there, creating those heavy volumes.

Then they pushed the price even higher, into a crazy strong uptrend.

Now there is a rotation which gets tighter and tighter. But when the price starts to move more again (maybe after the US presidential election?) and if it hits the 300.00 area then I expect that there will be a buying reaction. A buying reaction from the big institutional buyers who were building their Long positions around 300.00.

The 300.00 is the local Point of Control (POC) – that’s the place where most of the volumes got traded. It is usually a very important place in any chart.

TESLA: Support around 200.00

Another important price level to notice is the 200.00 (BTW. both these supports are nice round numbers).

This one is based an a Volume Cluster created within a trend. The logic is very similar to the 300.00 Support (Volume Profile – Trend Setup). The volumes that were traded there were not so heavy though.

To make up for this, there is one more confluence there. It is a confluence with a Price Action setup, which says that a breached Resistance becomes a Support.

As you can see from the chart below, the price nicely reacted to the 200.00 level in the past with a strong rejection. Because of this we know that it was a strong Resistance.

Now, when the price shot past the former Resistance, it became a Support.

It is the combination of the Volume-based setup and the Price Action-based setup that I like the most about this level.

Bitcoin is Dropping Hard! Here’s Where Smart Money Will Buy Again

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. In today’s video, I’d like to talk about Bitcoin. The reason is that Bitcoin has been dropping like crazy, and a lot of traders are wondering where Bitcoin will go and what to expect. If I look at the chart and use Volume Profile, I would say that it’s pretty straightforward because Volume Profile very clearly shows the strongest support and resistance levels. So, let’s take a look at the chart, and let me show you. What you see before you is the daily chart of Bitcoin. This is the big picture, and as you can see, from the all-time high here, Bitcoin experienced quite a significant sell-off and is currently dropping. Right now, I don’t really see any strong support that would stand in the way of this strong sell-off. Let me use Volume Profile and show you what could actually stop the sell-off of Bitcoin. All right, so what I’m going to do is apply Volume Profile over this whole area to see the volume distribution. As you can see, there ...

Quick In & Out Trade on USD/JPY – Smart Money Concepts & Volume Profile

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. Welcome to the next video of the new series, where I’ll talk about my recent trades. Today’s trade is on the  USD/JPY . It was a very quick in-and-out trade, so let’s check it out. What you see before you is the 30-minute chart of the  USD/JPY , and the level I was trading from was this short level at  149.63 . The reasoning behind this level—let me zoom in a little so you can see this better—was the volumes that formed here. From this place, there was a sharp sell-off. Even though the volumes do not particularly stand out, what’s important is that from this zone, there was a strong sell-off. There was also a  Fair Value Gap . My software highlights that, but when the gap is filled, it’s not highlighted anymore. If I mark it for you, this was the Fair Value Gap, which is a setup from Smart Money Concepts. I like to trade from the beginning of the Fair Value Gap, which is here. This is also the beginning of a heavy vol...
